NAME¶
wakebay —
will wake up Apple PowerBook
Mediabay devices
SYNOPSIS¶
DESCRIPTION¶
wakebay is a program, which is useful only for Apple Macintosh
Powerbooks. On invocation, it will wake up the specified Mediabay device that
was powered down by sleep. Waking up the device involves sending an IOCTL to
the device to force it to check for a media change, thus revalidating the
device info. Newer kernels do this internally so
wakebay
should only be needed on old kernel versions.
